Lepidotes was used as a wastebasket and non-monophyletic genus gathering numerous species. The type-species is L. gigas from the Early Jurassic and the other species referred on sound systematic reasons are also early Jurassic in age ( López-Arbarello, 2012). During the last years, some
Late Jurassic species previously referred to Lepidotes have been attributed to other genera (i.e. López-Arbarello and Sferco, 2011). In the Early Cretaceous, most Lepidotes species were also referred to other genera and most of them are included in the Lepisosteiformes , a clade of ginglymodians containing the extant gars ( Cavin, 2010; Cavin et al., 2013; Deesri et al., 2014). Adrianaichthys pankowskii constitutes a new occurrence of a lepisosteiform in the Cretaceous.
